"Minimalist sandwich bar that’s a veritable Viennese institution, serving tiny mouthwatering slices of rye Brötchen... topped with fishy, eggy and meaty spreads."
Frommer's
"Everyone in Vienna, from the most hurried office worker to the most elite hostess, knows about this spot. Franz Kafka lived next door and used to come here for sandwiches and beer."
